No Jets' offseason is complete until one of ours goes to either New England or Miami --- that has now happened.
NYDN's Manish Mehta is reporting DE Marques Douglas and Miami Dolphins have agreed to a 2-year deal worth approximately $2.5 million, which is why he will NOT be returning to the Jets for the 2010-11 season. Douglas started 12 of 16 games for GangGreen in 2009, and now the Jets DL takes a small hit and loses some depth.
After Phins' DE Philip Merling suffered a season-ending Achilles injury this week and is now a likely candidate for the 'non-football injury list,' Miami took a proactive approach and sought after Douglas.
So Parcells got his man, and now Douglas is re-united with DC Mike Nolan who coached him in Baltimore and San Francisco.
Here are his 2009 stats, per ESPN.Com:
| Stats Overview | Tackles | Misc | Interceptions | |||||||||||
| SPLIT | TOT | SOLO | AST | SACK | STF | STFY | FF | BK | INT | YDS | AVG | LNG | TD | PD |
| 2009 | 64 | 35 | 29 | 1.5 | 4 | 15 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0.0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| Career | 436 | 310 | 126 | 20.5 | 43 | 59 | 7 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0.0 | 0 | 0 | 10 |
| Postseason - 2009 | 7 | 2 | 5 | 0.0 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0.0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
